His top wide receiver Jerreth Sterns, also an HBU transfer, is the FBS leader in receptions (123) and receiving yards (1,511).
As for Marshall, the Thundering Herd are 24th in the FBS in scoring offense and 21st in scoring defense. The team is 11th in passing offense and 16th in passing defense, but even with that success against opposing quarterbacks, slowing down Zappe will be tough.
